How You Manage Asset Images
Assets can have one or many images defined. Images can be uploaded to the asset record using files of an image file type. Examples are JPG, PNG, and so on. Optionally, an asset image can also be defaulted during asset creation based on the source item.
Upload images for an asset on the Asset: Overview tab of the Edit Asset page. You can then view the images on this page, the Manage Assets search result rows, and in the Asset: Hierarchy tab.
To upload images to your asset, click the Add icon (+) below the image area on the right of the UI to open the Attachments dialog box, where you can upload one or many images.
Select the Browse button for each image and select the image from your files. You can also enter a title and description.
After the images are uploaded, you must set at least one image as the primary image for the asset. Select the image row and click the Set Primary icon on the Attachments dialog box. When selected, a check box icon will appear for the primary image row. This enables the image to be visible across the pages and tabs. If you don't set the image as primary, the images are saved but not displayed for the asset.
You can view and download the catalog of images. You can also edit the images and delete images.
To default an image during asset creation, you must upload an image as an attachment in the Item header region using the + icon. While generically entitled Manage Attachments, this capability is intended to support the upload one or many files of an image file type. When uploaded the images are previewed in the header details region. After upload, you must select an image in the list of files and click the Set as Primary action, then it's set as the primary image. If an item has a primary image defined, then each new asset that's created automatically inherits this image in the asset record.
